Tobacco Tax

[KRam311]

Ive been getting a bunch of emails about a potential big spike in federal tobacco taxes (as im sure many of u have). If the bill passes, when will it go into effect for cigars? Anyone know when the vote is taking place? Ive tried doing a little research but that stuff just makes my head spin so figured id reach out to the higher educated Bums. My take away was that itd be the start of next yr for cigars. Non-political responses please!

That sucks.

Hadnt heard about it as I quit watching or reading any news 1.5 years ago when I moved to the veteran's home and have been much happier for it. All it ever did was aggravate me, especially during the election season

Its congress so no telling. Be worried when you get the email it has passed. Until then you can support cra and email your state reps.

That’s why I keep hundreds of cigars to avoid these vultures putting their stinking hands in my pockets.

Yes, I filled out/signed a a petition type thing from one of those emails and it got sent to my state reps. Thanks for the response!

I think my Representative and Senators are getting tired of me calling and telling them my expectations of them and will do everything in my power to get them replaced in their next election if they vote for stoopid chit. They are getting ready to vote for giving almost $80 Billion to double the size of the IRS to enforce tax collection. Vote happens this Thursday in the House. Speak up or shut up!

Speak up and speak out.

Do it in a professional and courteous manner: don't give them (their aides) a reason to discount it.

Pre-done forms are great, but always change a couple lines/subject title with your own words - they may track how many duplicate responses they receive in an attempt to marginalize them.

Thanks for this tip!!

One of my representatives leaves the country on a vacation during a state emergency, doubt we can count on him.
